You know guys, I'm starting to think what we heard about Altman when he was removed a while ago might actually have been real.

Ohio sheriff suggests residents keep a list of homes with Harris yard signs
My God that headline is terrible. That's the most sane shit he said.
"When people ask me...What’s gonna happen if the Flip — Flopping, Laughing Hyena Wins?? I say...write down all the addresses of the people who had her signs in their yards! Sooo...when the Illegal human ‘Locust’ (which she supports!) Need places to live...We’ll already have the addresses of the their New families...who supported their arrival!" the post said.
He shouldn't have access to sharp objects, nonetheless a firearm, or be fucking Sheriff. He's a danger to his community.

Microsoft CEO Admits That AI Is Generating Basically No Value
Correction, LLMs being used to automate shit doesn't generate any value. The underlying AI technology is generating tons of value.

The Absurd Prosecution of a Man Who Posted a Charlie Kirk Meme - Larry Bushart Jr. posted trolling memes on a Facebook thread about a vigil for Kirk. He’s been in a Tennessee jail ever since.
This guy is gonna have a field day with his lawsuit once this is over. The prosecutor is going to cost them millions for something no one will remember after it's over.

U.S. citizen mistakenly detained by ICE outside Michigan courthouse speaks out
Many of us have been comparing ICE and the SS since it's inception alongside the Department of Homeland Security post-9/11.
9/11 ended up being way more successful than Osama Bin Laden could ever have imagined. It just took an extra 25 years for the Republican party to destroy the country from within like he wanted.

Targeting costly meds, Biden admin asserts authority to seize certain drug patents
These drugs were developed with public funds and yet are sold at outrageous pricing.
If the pharma industry was at all reasonable about their pricing, this wouldn't be a consideration at all.
If you take public funds, you can't charge exorbitant amounts. Seems an easy trade-off decision for them to make.

Luigi Mangione's Pennsylvania attorney argues search, arrest were illegal
If his arrest and search were unlawful, then all evidence obtained from it is inadmissible in court. If they did not read him his Miranda rights, that could be enough by itself to basically throw everything out.
I think that's what happened, and that's why the NYPD and other officials have been doing the rounds on the media talking about shit before even providing evidence to the defense team as required. They know the evidence won't be usable in court and they're trying to taint the jury pool with that info ahead of time before they have to admit that they fucked up so badly they couldn't even do the most basic part of their job required for EVERY arrest, by anyone, anywhere in the country.

Reddit Files to Go Public, Reveals That It Paid CEO $193 Million Last Year
$804M in revenue... $286M to CEO and COO pay alone... so just two officers are worth 35% of the company's annual revenue? Not profit, because it isn't profitable, but just base revenue. Not even Elon Musk is paid that high a percentage of revenue.
Even ignoring the fact reddit doesn't pay anyone for moderation, and all their other reliance on community freebies... That's insane.
And they want to go public with that info? They believe that's a financially sound position to be in heading into an IPO? Spez is even more stupid than I thought.

"Bless her heart"
She doesn't know how it works? Her father was a Congressman for this same region of AZ 2003-2025, and she has taken over his seat. She grew up with her father in other seats prior to that and helped with every one of his campaigns.
She knows how it fucking works better than at least half of Congress. That's why they want to keep her out as long as possible.

Luigi Mangione illegally searched during arrest in health insurance CEO killing, lawyer says

Sounds to me like law enforcement know they fucked up the arrest and search, that evidence won't be admissible in court, so they're trying to make it public instead to prejudice not only the public but the jury pool.

That's kind of an understatement. Three traumatic brain injuries is not exactly something that can be ignored when discussing differences in mental faculties.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) waiting outside unmarked van
Looks like a group of shady men wearing masks intended to hide their faces around an unmarked van threatening civilians with weapons to me. Call the police, maybe hyperbolize it a bit. Make them either abandon their spot or waste their time justifying their existence to the police instead of whatever bullshit they're there to do.
